Hey Nation! We have a new addition in our family. As some of you know, I've been in discussions with breeders, adoption agency people and rescue shelters for about a year for a German Shepherd. We finally agreed to take Jake to the humane society and had him check out a few pups. We found Heidi. We took her out of her cage and she circled my kids about 3 times and sat down right next to Jake. I was told she was herding them??? We adopted her over a holiday a month ago and the vet I chose phoned me on the day we were to pick her up asking permission to shave her entire underside as her belly, chest and half way up her sides was matted with pee, poo, mud and whatever else. So she was shaved, bathed, spayed, vaccinated and then she was ours! She continues to herd my kids (and cats), it really is a wild thing to witness! She is super laid back and the noise level doesn't seem to phase her a bit! She's 16 weeks old now, nips and loves to play.
